abstract = "In traffic environment, conventional FMCW radar with triangular transmit waveform may bring out many false targets in multi-target situations and result in a high false alarm rate. An improved FMCW waveform and multi-target detection algorithm for vehicular applications is presented. The designed waveform in each small cycle is composed of two-segment: LFM section and constant frequency section. They have the same duration, yet in two adjacent small cycles the two LFM slopes are opposite sign and different size. Then the two adjacent LFM bandwidths are unequal. Within a determinate frequency range, the constant frequencies are modulated by a unique PN code sequence for different automotive radar in a big period. Corresponding to the improved waveform, which combines the advantages of both FSK and FMCW formats, a judgment algorithm is used in the continuous small cycle to further eliminate the false targets. The combination of unambiguous ranges and relative velocities can confirm and cancel most false targets in two adjacent small cycles.",
